New Memeber/New Owner - Ape Cruiser (1 Viewer)

[Ape Cruiser]

Hi everyone - looking forward to joining this forum. I’ve been a 4Runner guy for 20 years and on T4R.Org as Ape Runner. Now selling my 5th Gen and just bought my first LC: a 2018 with 45k miles. Magnetic Gray with Black interior and the Rear entertainment package. I take delivery in 2 weeks and then have the following planned:

Full Body wrap in XPEL Stealth
Tinted taillights
Vinyl Wrap chrome in black metallic 3M
Might do a different grill
Roof Rack (still deciding which)
Wheels (still deciding which)
285/70/17 Copper Discoverer AT3’s
Canvas Back cargo and rear hatch liner (amazing for sand cleanup)
Skid Package (still deciding which)

I occasionally head into the backcountry to survey fire roads, trails, and do backcountry trail maintenance as a volunteer with Los Padres Forest Association (LPFA.Org). Otherwise this will be the family beach wagon.

Looking forward to owning this rig until it no longer runs and learning a ton here on the forums!

Happy Trails!

Welcome! I’m sure you know coming from 4Runner world that everything has crazy long lead times these days. My rather pedestrian ARB skids took a couple of months and they are generally always in stock.

Welcome. If you’re going to keep it until it no longer runs, it’ll probably be part of your estate.
